Pleasant location, very friendly staff, but felt that there could have been more toilet and shower facilities. Seems to be queuing a lot of the time. Also no hair dryers.
Friendly, small, clean and tidy site

The facilities were always clean and tidy and the owner very informative and helpful on anything local. Nice, small, quiet site but not cramped. The owner was always very helpful. Will definitely go again.
